- 17. Problem 4The Ada County Highway District Pavement Management Technician needs to know how many tons of asphalt will be needed on a section of road. The section of road measures 5,280 feet (1 mile) in length and 26 feet wide. The asphalt needs to be 3 inches in depth. Asphalt weighs 144 tons per 2,000 ft3.
- 18. ANSWER3 inches · (1 foot/12") = .25 ft144 tons/2000 ft^3 = .072 tons of asphalt per cubic footlength · width · depth · weight per f^t3 = tons of asphalt5,280 ft x 26 ft x .25 ft x .072 tons = 2,471 tons of asphalt

- 21. Problem 6A horse weighs 1,200 pounds. He is sick and has been diagnosed with a certain disease. This disease is treated with Drug X. Instructions are to give 3 mg/kg orally twice a day for 5 days. The medicine is provided in 200 mg tablets. How many tablets need to be dispensed each day?How many tablets need to be dispensed for the 5 days?2.2 pounds = 1 kg
- 22. ANSWER1,200 lbs/2.2 lbs/kg= 545 kgs (weight of horse) 545 kgs x 3 mg/kg = 1,635 mg 1,635 mg x 2 times/day = 3,270 mg per day (3,270 mg/day) /(200 mg/pill) = 16.35 or 16 pills per day 16.35 pills/day x 5 days = 81.75 pills to be dispensed*Open-ended discussion: What would you do about the partial pill?
- 23. Problem 7John and Joan are planning a new home. They want as much window area as possible. The local energy code permits a maximum window area of 17% of the house floor area. The windows John and Joan will use are each 3 ft. x 5 ft. and the floor area of the house is 1,720 square feet. How many windows can they put into their new house?
- 24. ANSWER17% of 1,720 sq. ft. = 292.4 sq. ft.Each window is 3' x 5' or 15 sq. ft.292.4 15 = 19.49 Therefore, John and Joan can have at most 19 windows.
- 25. Problem 8An electrician has to pour a concrete signal base 4' in diameter, 14' deep with two 6" conduits coming up from the bottom and centered in the base.How much concrete does he need to order? Concrete is ordered by the cubic yard.
- 26. ANSWERSubtract the area in cubic feet of the two conduits from the area in cubic feet of the base and translate to cubic yards. diameter of base = 4 ft diameter of conduit = .5 ft Formula: (area of base ft3) - 2 (area of conduit ft3) yd3 = concrete needed (p r2 · h) - 2 ( p r2 · h ) yd3 = cubic yards (3.14 x 22 x 14) - 2 ( 3.14 x 0.252 x 14 )3 ft x 3 ft x 3 ft = cubic yards 175.84 ft3 - 5.495 ft327 ft3 = 6.3 cubic yards
- 27. Problem 9Cattle graze on the Boise National Forest. To determine how many cattle graze on a pasture, it is necessary to determine how much feed is available and the quantity consumed by cattle.The pasture produces 1200 pounds of forage per acre. Cattle are only allowed to use 40% of this forage. The pasture contains 1,500 acres suitable for grazing. If a cow and her calf eat 33 pounds of food a day, how long can 500 pairs of cows and calves stay in the pasture?
- 28. ANSWER(1200 lbs. forage/acre)(40%) = 480 lbs. usable feed/acre (480 lbs./acre)(1500 acres) = 720,000 lbs. usable feed720,000 lbs. feed 33 lbs. cow-calf days = 21,818 cow-calf days21.818 cow-calf days 500 cow-calf pairs = 43.6 daysRounded to the lowest whole day = 43 days
